I just moved to Kraków!

I started learning Polish a little under two years ago. I fell in love with this city over the course of several visits last year. I finally managed to pick up my entire life and move it over here. No, it wasn't even on account of some girl, although there will doubtless be one in my future. Now I can't imagine ever living anywhere but here.

Pozdrawiam Was serdecznie!

    Glad to hear you're settling in well there. Congratulations on your new adventure living there! I look forward to hearing about the delights you discover, no doubt there will be pleasant surprises that make theirselves known over time...

    I'd love to hear details. I recently was offered a job in Turkey, but the thought of picking up so fast scares me. I rent, but I own tons of furniture, I have a car, a boyfriend, and a few small pets.

      Well, I had friends and "stuff," including a car and an apartment I owned in San Francisco. I still own the apartment (I'm renting it out for a profit), but I sold all of the unnecessary "stuff" so it wasn't so hard. And my true friends will always eagerly come visit me! I didn't have a girlfriend, and the prospect of trying to meet someone in SF whom I would have wanted to marry was looking increasingly ridiculous. I'm not going to have much time here to keep up with tribe, there's way too much LIFE to live here!

        krakow is gorgeous, and i'm not just saying that because i was born there.
        good choice!
        when you get a chance go visit the baltic sea and the northern coast.
        oh and check out tatry moutains too.

          Yes, I'm most likely going to Sopot in a few weeks with my sister, who will be visiting from the States! I can't wait! Polish beaches! Can anyone recommend a place to stay there?

            sorry, i'm of no help in that regard. it's been a very long time since i lived and played there...but my mom just came back from the healing spas around there, i can ask at some point in the next few days, when i get a hold of her.

              sopot my mom sais is expensive...try bed and breakfast in sopot, gdansk, basically look around for b&b there. there is a fast train btw those cities she sais, and transportation is easy from place to place.
              also she suggests the university in gdansk campus which is in high demand in the summer.

              that's it, hope it helps a bit!
